My daughter sent me a funny YouTube video about capybaras. She called them “creepy creepy creepy gigantic rodents”. I did a little research and found they are, indeed, rodents. In fact, the largest living rodent in the world and can reach up to seventy-five to one-hundred pounds!

Squirrels are rodents, too, and frolic all over my deck. Capybaras aren’t the frolicking sort of animal. Can you imagine a one-hundred pounder skipping along the rails and burrowing in the flowerpots?
